"Surf Nazis Must Die", a pseudo-apocalyptic film from Troma, is easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen on the Big Screen. It played in an art-cinema house on the Boulder Mall for almost a whole month as a midnight movie. I thought I was going to see some campy fun, but instead got annoyed with the very bad photography, lame dialogue, and overall lack of action in what was supposed to be a satire of action pictures. The girl with the best figure doesn't even take her top off, instead there are endless scenes of fake sex with less-attractive underlings.Not a lot to recommend here -- though I know some folks love this picture because it's a Troma. Maybe you should listen to them and not me. Frankly, I hated it. It was released about 1981 or so & is still widely available on video, last time I looked.

People don't love this BECAUSE of Troma ... people love Troma because of Surf Nazis. I'm one of them. It had a stronger cult following than Toxie or Nuke'Em enjoyed back in the day. It helped put Troma on the map.

I rewatched this maybe a year ago, and was shocked at how well it holds up, unlike Toxie and Class of. Hilarious. The superior Troma film. It sends up Punk Rock, Blaxploitaion, Beach Party movies ... what more can you ask for?

I actually think this is such a B-Movie 'must-see' that it's almost a cliche.

Dear Abby, Dear Abby . . . (Remember the John Prine song?):So you mean to say that the endless endless scene of the head Surf Nazi & his hench-buddy arguing and screaming in an empty warehouse, shot from what looks like 100 yards away in one continuous steady shot so that they look like little blip puppets shrieking & waving their arms, didn't grate on you like sandpaper on the inside of your eyelids? I'm impressed. That's what I love about this site -- something for everyone.Yeah, sure, it was shot at a beach, but a "parody of beach movies"? No way!Annoying stinky bad movie. Go away annoying stinkybad(c) movie!!

I missed Eric von Zipper and Buster Keaton and anything resembling a closeup, a musical number, a love story, a volleyball game or fun for that matter. Had these been included, I could take your claim of "beach movie parody" seriously. Maybe it's been too long, but I'll take your word for it rather than sit through it again."Creature From the Haunted Sea" -- now there's an ocean-based fun film. . . .
